About Vacanza Pizzeria Surry Hills

Vacanza turns out blistered, wood-fired Neapolitan pies with San Marzano pomodoro and airy, chew-worthy crusts on Bourke Street. Regulars pull up curbside tables by the wide-open windows for prime Surry Hills people-watching—or huddle inside over warm focaccia and crisp mushroom arancini. Long tables split generous set menus and bottles of wine from home, making group dinners easy on the bill. The kitchen keeps the tempo brisk, sending out spicy Diavola pizzas and house tiramisu while the street hums outside.

  • Neapolitan wood-fired pizza: Wood-fired pies baked with San Marzano tomatoes, fior di latte, and light, pillowy crusts.
  • BYO wine friendly: Guests can bring their favorite wine to accompany dinner alongside friends and family.
  • Bourke Street sidewalk buzz: Large open windows and curbside tables capture the neighborhood street energy.

Key Dining Advantages

Why diners choose Vacanza Pizzeria for wood-fired Neapolitan pizza, BYO wine, and vibrant street dining in Surry Hills.

  • Authentic Neapolitan Dough

    Traditional wood-fired Neapolitan pizza crafted with authentic, light, and well-fermented dough reminiscent of Naples.

    The dough was beautifully soft and on par with pizza you can get in Naples.

  • Wood-Fired Precision

    Pizzas baked in a traditional wood oven topped with vibrant tomato sauce, melted mozzarella, and fresh ingredients.

    The dough is light, well-risen, and cooked to perfection.

  • BYO Wine Flexibility

    Welcoming BYO policy enables guests to bring personal bottles of wine to accompany their dinner and manage costs.

    Bonus points for offering BYO, we always love to save a bit of moola on drinks.

  • Custom Beverage Pairing

    Freedom to pair casual Italian dining with favorite wines from home without high beverage markups.

    it’s also BYO if you have some nice bottle at home to have with some great Italian.

    Burrata is a must too, so is the chilli oil.

Before you head over

Practical advice on reservations, parking, and BYO for your visit

  • Reserve Ahead for Peak Hours

    Tables fill up quickly during peak lunch and evening services. Book a table ahead of time to avoid potential waits when the dining room is full.

  • Plan for Tricky Street Parking

    Street parking around Bourke Street is tight and difficult to find, so allow extra time to drive around and secure a parking spot before your reservation.

  • Bring Your Own Wine

    Take advantage of the venue's BYO wine option by bringing a bottle from home to pair with wood-fired pizzas and keep dining costs down.
